Great location in Lubec
Best part is the location, a large deck overlooking Johnson Bay--seals, loons, scoters, and other birds. Close to downtown Lubec, Campobello Island, West Quoddy lighthouse and trails, and the amazing network of trails developed by Cobscook Shores and other land trusts. We had a few snafus checking in and getting the wi-fi set-up, but our host Angela was very responsive and prompt in getting things fixed up and provided us lots of information of things to do. Great yard for dogs - thanks! The cottage would be small for more than 2 people and the stairs to the bedroom are narrow and steep, and the bathroom small, but otherwise the cottage is well-appointed, Everything you need.

Anniversary Stay at The Halibut House
My wife and I stayed at the Halibut House for 5 days to celebrate our anniversary and get away from the hustle and bustle for a little while. From the start Angela was very good with communication. Whenever I had a question she was quick to reply which was very helpful. The town is a quaint fishing port on Johnson bay. There’s lots of things to do in the area. We went digging for soft shell clams, went on a whale watch, explored the lighthouses of the area, plus more. We loved the Halibut House. The fenced in yard was amazing for our 5# puppy. He had a blast running free!!! The views of the western horizon are amazing at sunset. The house was stocked with just about everything you need. We bought local lobsters and brought our own meats and veggies to make a clam/lobster boil which was awesome!!! Overall the stay was great!!! Thank you to Angela and Sophie for all the information and work that is put into making sure our stay was great!!! We’ll be back!!!

Cozy Cottage
Quaint little cottage right on the bay. Spectacular views including sunsets. Lovely, large deck with comfortable seating. Beautiful bay view from inside also. Two comfortable chairs allow you to enjoy the views! The queen size bed is in a cozy loft. The stairs could be a bit challenging for an elderly guest. Bathroom is a bit tiny. Everything you need for the kitchen is supplied. Large enclosed yard for pets or kids. Several nice restaurants in the town center. Lovely breeze at night. Very relaxing time away!

Wonderful dog-friendly accommodations with AMAZING view!
We loved Halibut House! We went with friends and brought our dogs. The house is adorable with a wonderful waterfront location. The yard is large and fully fenced in, which was great for the dogs. The town has a few restaurants and a brewery, which we enjoyed. Everything Lubec has to offer is a mile or less from the rental. The town itself is a bit sleepy, but it was nice being forced to slow down and relax. The owner and the caretaker are wonderful to deal with and extremely responsive. I would highly recommend this rental.

Beautiful waterfront property, great cottage
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Lubec gem. The cottage was super close to everything in town. We loved having the main bedroom upstairs and the “bunkhouse” next door for the kids. It was a relaxing low key space and a great property for dogs (fully fenced in). We highly recommend, thank you!

Amazing Views!
We had a lovely four nights at The Halibut House in early June. The property was as described. Perfect cute cottage for the two of us and our pup. Loved the decor and it had everything we needed. The deck is perfect for drinks in the evening and breakfast in the morning. The view was AMAZING! The sunsets were beautiful and the view of Johnson Bay was spectacular. Loved the fenced yard for the dog and it was much larger than we expected. Loved the Lubec area. We are looking forward to another visit and will stay here again!
